In Japan, the leading causes of visual disability among holders of the official vision impairment certificate are glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration, all of which may result in progressive visual deterioration (low vision). The number of individuals with visual impairment is increasing, and this trend is expected to continue with the aging of the population.
Cataract surgery is performed more than 1.6 million times annually in Japan and has been reported to be a highly cost-effective procedure. Previous studies have also demonstrated that cataract surgery improves patient`s cognitive function, depressive symptoms, and vision-related quality of life. These reports further showed a significant correlation between postoperative visual acuity and patient satisfaction. However, no studies have specifically focused on patients whose postoperative visual improvement remains limited, and no consensus has been established regarding surgical indications in such cases.
Others
We conducted a survey of ophthalmologist`s attitudes toward patients with low vision, with the aim of providing insights that may help guide refractive choices in future surgeries.
